So, we can expect the same nonchalance from the left when Letterman starts making crude jokes about the Obama girls? I can’t hardly wait. :rolleyes: ---

If one of the Obama girls gets knocked up at 16 (or however old), then yes. ---

So Alex Rodriguez knocked up Sara Palin’s sister while Sara Paling was knocked up by a soccer team? Wow. It gets better and better with the retelling. I’d like to see the movie. Is it out on DVD yet? ---

They did that as a show of gender equality, whereas the Democrats nominated a black guy out of tokenism, so it doesn’t count. ---

Since no one has suggested the possibility that he might have been mistakenly referring to her son Trig Palin, I’ll assume you’re all okay with aggravated sodomy of disabled infants. ---

> [@riker1384](#): > > Actually, they raised it to 16 last year, with some an exception if the age difference is less than 5 years. My feelings about this are a little mixed. If the “Tackling Violent Crime Act” (cough) was in force in the '80s, then the most of my sexual partners from '85 - '87 would be considered sex offenders today. As it was, these young women were often primarily responsible for birth control and had mysterious pharmaceuticals, jellies, diaphragms, etc. I have a hard time imagining that it would have been better if I went with grade eight & nine girls that were my perfect equals in terms of horniness and inexperience. But, then, I _am_ a misguided leftist and firmly believe that people should be as prepared as possible for the practicalities of human sexual behaviour as they first approach sexual maturity. Putting all the emphasis on simple resistence against a biological imperative and leaving young people to figure the rest out for themselves only leads to situations wherein toothy comedians point and laugh at you for your family’s poor record of family planning. ---

I’m no fan of misogynists, whatever their political leanings, but this didn’t even give me a hint of an outrage boner. It was pretty lame, though. ---

And if there’s frothing outrage from, say, Olbermann, it’ll likely be the only funny thing about THAT joke too. Same as I was completely indifferent to Limbaugh’s lame jokes about Chelsea. Who the fuck cares, folks, they’re (frequently inept) comedians. ---

The libs freaked when Rush Limbaugh told a joke about Chelsea Clinton in the '90s. Oh, it was the end of the world back then. Now, of course, it’s not a big deal. What a shock to learn that liberals are total hypocrites. ---

It is just probably the case that **Sinaijon** isn’t that funny - a curse that afflicts many of us. Just ask my wife. Now, everybody knows that feminists don’t get humor - but that’s for another thread. 😉 ---

By your own standard, conservatives are equally hypocritical, because they insisted there was nothing wrong with making fun of a politician’s kid in the '90s, and now they’re all freaked out over Palin’s kid. Of course, your standard is retarded, so it’s not really too much of a concern. ---
